Springfield, Missouri in 1955.
Current view. Probably the same view in hundreds of towns now..

The sedan looks like it really got t-boned, but the passenger compartment looks to be quite intact so I'd guess the people in that car fared better than whoever was in the truck in the background.

Probably not very vintage, but worthy of posting nonetheless.

Wasn't sure whether to post this here on or the "Vintage Things That Have Disappeared" thread. Venetian blinds are still around, but a place that cleans them for you? Springfield, Missouri. First photo circa 1977.

There were some holes that looked like where the neon used to be attached, but not really sure about that. Either way, it was too good not to share.

^ I'd like to have seen that one in it's prime, i.e. freshly painted and vibrant colors, neon or not.

I'd love to know what it was even for. It was standing next to an empty lot where there was a foundation of some long gone building.

It is incredible how many times you see a Rexall sign in movies from the '30s-'50s. Once you start to notice the Rexall sign in old movies, you'll see it all the time.
